Overheating Problem on laptop

[PyroRaider]

Hello everyone.
My laptop has had a bad case of the heat for a few months, which also affected my games:
i constatly drops and gain fps (10 second 60- 5 second 30-25) over and over.
so i decided to open my laptop and i found alot of dust, but since i dont have an air duster, i couldnt clean out the fans.
Should i go out and buy one or will it not matter?
by the way my temps reach 93 degrees while gaming (gpu and cpu)

Of course it matters. If you don't want to spend money though, you could also just make a paper funnel and attach it to a hair dryer. While you're at it, you should also replace the thermal interface materials wherever you can. Remember to do all the dusting outside.

I would say you need 2 things:
compressed air:

cooling pad:

IF IT HITS 93 C you need to do it ASAP.
dust is just like a sweeter, you don't want it when you work on something hard AND in summer

Try to lower your settings also slightly to lower load.

Take a few precautions when you clean the fans, especially if using canned air. It could spin them fast enough to cause damage. I like using a wooden toothpick since it's non-conductive, and a bicycle pump (without the metal needle) to blow air. I've also used air pumps that came with an inflatable mattress, and one of those fitness balls. In a pinch, you could always make an air bladder with a ziploc bag. Cut off one corner and stick a straw or paper funnel through and tape it in place. Then inflate bag and squeeze it to blow air.

Wasn't careful as you. I cleaned dust of my laptop fan by hand and cloth!

Hand and cloth sounds a lot safer than a vacuum cleaner, which is what I originally used. Even then I got away with it for years, until an old P4 system. When I held the wand up to the PSU, the fan spun so fast it made a noise like an electric car peeling out. It didn't die, but it never stopped making that noise. Drove me insane, especially knowing it was entirely my fault.
